DESCRIPTION

Dtc P0112  Intake Air Temperature Circuit Low Input. 1UR-FE ENGINE CONTROL. Land Cruiser URJ200  URJ202 GRJ200 VDJ200
The intake air temperature sensor, mounted on the mass air flow meter, monitors the intake air temperature. The intake air temperature sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance that varies according to the temperature of the intake air. When the intake air temperature is low, the resistance of the thermistor increases. When the temperature is high, the resistance drops. These variations in resistance are transmitted to the ECM as voltage changes (see Fig. 1).
The intake air temperature sensor is powered by a 5 V supply from the THA terminal of the ECM, via resistor R.
Resistor R and the intake air temperature sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the intake air temperature sensor changes according to changes in the intake air temperature, the voltage at terminal THA also varies. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume when the engine is cold to improve driveability.
  • HINT:
  • When DTC P0112 or P0113 is stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode. During fail-safe mode, the intake air temperature is estimated to be 20°C (68°F) by the ECM. The ECM continues operating in fail-safe mode until a pass condition is detected.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM monitors the sensor voltage and uses this value to calculate the intake air temperature. When the sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the intake air temperature sensor and stores a DTC.


Example:


If the sensor output voltage is higher than 4.91 V for 0.5 seconds or more, the ECM determines that there is an open in the intake air temperature sensor circuit and stores DTC P0113. Conversely, if the output voltage is below 0.18 V for 0.5 seconds or more, the ECM determines that there is a short in the sensor circuit and stores DTC P0112.


If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is stored 0.5 seconds after the engine is next started.


CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

Turn the engine switch on (IG) and wait for 5 seconds or more.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

  • HINT:
  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
